Well I have already told you what system would be better. You haven't really responded to the points though.

From 930 AD to 1262 AD the Icelandic communities were essentially anarchistic, that is over 300 years of stable anarchy. Rhode Island from 1636 to 1648, was an anarchist community. Pennsylvania from 1681 to 1690. Right now there is a anarchist community in Denmark called Christiania which is still functioning. This myth that anarchism is a 'transitory' system of power has been squashed.
